ANSWER:

y = - x

An equation which describes the graph shown is:
y = - x

Explanation:

The equation of this line will be in the following form:

y = mx

We will substitute the values given from the problem into the formula to obtain the equation of the line.

y = mx

m = gradient or slope = rise / run = - 5 / 5 = - 1

THEREFORE:

y = ( - 1 )x

y = - x
